1 Millions GOAL 16: MINING IN NEW BRUNSWICK New Brunswick will reconsider the potential for the mining industry to serve as a critical source of GDP growth. Status: UNCERTAIN Current Situation In 2011, the Fraser Institute praised New Brunswick's mining industry for its stability and qualified labour force, officially recognizing the province as the top mining jurisdiction in the world. 1 New Brunswick has a long history of mining, which earned the province an international reputation for fair regulation, complementary infrastructure, and an attractive taxation system. In addition, the extraction of potash, shale gas, and metal ores employed thousands of workers and generated a large amount of GDP. The province's current growth strategy stands in stark contrast to this economic history, however, as mining (including oil and gas extraction) is no longer considered a potential sector for GDP growth. Over the last decade, mining production has fallen by 75%, and it faces further limitations brought about by a struggling market and the provincial government's natural gas moratorium. It is recommended that New Brunswick reconsider the importance of mining as a critical source of GDP growth. Reinvigorating the province's mining industry could stimulate economic development and sustain higher levels of investment and employment. This could be accomplished, for instance, through the operation of more mines, such as the proposed Sisson Project open-pit Tungsten mine in the Nashwaak River Valley (which is the only mining project referenced within the provincial growth plan). If environmentally approved, the Tungsten mine could generate investments of at least $500 million over 27 years while creating numerous jobs for the province.

This negative trend has more recently been amplified by the 2013 closure of Bathurst's Xstrata Zinc mine, as well as the 2016 fracking moratorium, which affected the shale gas industry. Both New Brunswick and Nova Scotia hit their respective exportation lows in 2016 and 2017, which shows that this trend is affecting more Atlantic provinces than just New Brunswick.

Over the 5 years since this closure ( ), metal ore mining completely disappeared from the province, as did mining for iron, gold, and silver. Although mining for other metal ores (including copper, zinc, lead, and nickel) continued after the Bathurst mine closed, it disappeared in Meanwhile, the oil and gas extraction industries have become more volatile, possibly because of fluctuations in international prices and the implementation of a provincial fracking moratorium.

This downward trend appears to have been national, rather than provincial, as Saskatchewan Canada's largest producer of potash exhibited a similar pattern in potash exports during the same timeframe. Yet, despite this setback, Canada remains the largest potash producer in the world. Over the same period, sand and gravel mining and peat extraction in New Brunswick remained constant or increased, while there was a decrease in the mining and quarrying of granite and limestone.

Deemed The Sisson Project, this open-pit mine is intended to attract long-term investment, create high-paying short- and long-term employment, and strengthen the provincial economy. Extraction of tungsten and molybdenum would benefit New Brunswick's GDP and reduce the trade deficit. As of 2017, Canada's international trade balance for these resources was at a deficit of over $8 million. The Sisson Project could aid in the reduction of this deficit either by increasing the volume of exports or by keeping the resources in the province and therefore decreasing the volume of imports.
